Pros

Some of the people I worked with day to day were actually solid.

Cons

- The entire place is weighed down by people who were promoted simply because they stayed the longest, not because they actually know how to lead or manage a team. - Decision-making feels reactive and disorganized instead of guided by real leadership or planning. - The people in charge do not seem to understand what a team needs to function or succeed, yet they are responsible for directing everything. - There is constant talk about growth, but leadership roles are often filled by individuals with little to no experience in developing or managing people. - The same ineffective leadership patterns keep repeating, leading to little to no real improvement over time. - There is no meaningful accountability once someone is promoted, as feedback is often ignored or blocked. - Problems continue to stack up because issues are not addressed, only left unresolved. - The gap between what the team could achieve and what actually happens is heavily driven by a weak leadership structure.
